Women get a bad rap when it comes to initiating sex, and while it’s true that being assertive about asking for what we want can be tough for some of us, there are about a million different situations that might inspire us to throw a man on the bed and tell him what’s up. We don’t always need a scented candle burning and a deep talk about our feelings to get us in the mood. Sometimes we just need to be cheered up after watching a documentary about peak oil. Or maybe we’re avoiding doing a formidable pile of laundry. Or maybe we were weirdly turned on by an offhanded sexual comment made by a guy we weren’t even attracted to 5 minutes ago. The point? There are tons of times when we have no problem going after a penis we want. Here are a few of them…

1. We just watched a really depressing documentary on Netflix and now I need to be cheered up.

2. I’m annoyed with you and know an orgasm is a shortcut to forgiveness.

3. I just had a soul-crushing convo with my mother, and you are holding me, and oh, now I want to make love to you!

4. We’ve been laying on the couch and I got bored.

5. The “Oh my god you remembered to buy the kind of half and half I like and I’m so in love with you right now” sex.
